92 - Icon

4.5

2 star wf is not that bad

By futbin59985884, 15-01-2021

Thinking id just got prime Ronaldinho out of my untradeable 50k pack I was obviously happy. Unfortunately, prime Rivaldo walked out instead. But you can't be disappointed with a prime icon, so I overlooked the weak foot and tried him out for a few games. He started off slow but as I got used to his dribbling style and runs he turned into a beast. Every time the ball fell onto his left foot or he cut inside to finesse it I knew it was going in. As well as this when he wasn't running in behind he can collect the ball to feet hold off a cb and very easily play a good ball to your on-running attacker. His attacking ai is also good, and his freekicks are amazing. Overall if you want to buy this card I would wait for his price to drop but if you packed him try him out. (And if you can use Robben's 2-star wf you can use this Rivaldo)

Shooting, his left foot is a rocket (and the right isn't as bad as you would think)

Most if not all of his passes land perfectly

His dribbling and strength combo holds off even some of the most meta defenders well

Obviously links

Bit scummy but he will volley in every low driven cross with great power

The heading is quite good

Versatility could play cam lw st

2-star wf is a drawback but up inside the box the shot will usually go in

Can feel clunky and slow in the last 15 mins of the game

Need another st next to him so long-ranged right-footed shots won't get wasted

Rivaldo

The most underrated icon on Fifa 21

Just like real life, Rivaldo is somewhat underrated. Despite winning a Ballon D'or, he has become somewhat of the forgotten Brazilian, with the likes of Ronaldinho and Ronaldo Nazarrio from that great Brazil team getting way more limelight than the tall forward. Dinho and R9 are two of the very best footballers ever, no doubt, but Rivaldo definitely has his place amongst the all time greats! I used him as ...
